i have made promises
with my mouth and my hands,
and i have left the womb of safety
to love you.
it is not much to sacrifice.
of what good is a safe world,
securing the memories of
my dusty little life?
this love is a risk i choose to live with.
and where will i be when you die?
right here
holding the hand of your carcass
whispering 'safe journey, my love,
see you soon, my dear sweet love.'
holding the hand of your carcass
whispering 'safe journey, my love,
see you soon, my dear sweet love.'

This is so beautiful! Lee shared it with me. You are able to describe how I feel about my soul mate!
